Option values

So I have this option with choices

 {
            name: 'punishment-type',
            type: ApplicationCommandOptionType.String,
            description: 'Type of punishment',
            required: true,
            choices: [
                {
                    name: 'Game Ban',
                    value: 'game-ban',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Server Ban',
                    value: 'server-ban',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Kick',
                    value: 'server-kick',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Warning',
                    value: 'server-warning',
                },
            ],
        },

 {
            name: 'punishment-type',
            type: ApplicationCommandOptionType.String,
            description: 'Type of punishment',
            required: true,
            choices: [
                {
                    name: 'Game Ban',
                    value: 'game-ban',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Server Ban',
                    value: 'server-ban',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Kick',
                    value: 'server-kick',
                },
                {
                    name: 'Warning',
                    value: 'server-warning',
                },
            ],
        },

And to get the value i use

 const punishmentTypeValue = interaction.options.get('punishment-type')?.value || 'No punishment type provided';

 const punishmentTypeValue = interaction.options.get('punishment-type')?.value || 'No punishment type provided';

I was wondering instead of the choice value is it possible to get the choice name ? I cannot seem to figure out how..

no just make your name the same as your value if you want that

I tried using .name and it returns server-ban I want it to say Server Ban

then make your value that instead of lowercase also use options.getString() not get()?.value

        const punishmentTypeValue = interaction.options.getString('punishment-type')?.name

        const punishmentTypeValue = interaction.options.getString('punishment-type')?.name

name does not work
